Hello,

Please update to wmfdata version 2.3.0 and/or update your conda-analytics environments.

Hello, I have just pushed a new version of our conda-analytics environment to production and I encourage you to start using it as soon as possible please. The only change from the previous version is an important bump of the wmfdata-python library to version 2.3.0, which allows wmfdata to talk to presto using a DNS alias, instead of a hard-coded hostname.

If you create a new clone of conda-analytics you will automatically get this new version of wmfdata, but if that's inconvenient you can always update the version within your existing environments. The instructions for doing that are here. Once you have all had enough time to update your environments, we will be able to make a change to the presto configuration that will break presto support for older versions of wmfdata.

If you have any questions or concerns about this change, or if you notice anything peculiar with conda-analytics, please don't hesitate to let us know and we will look into it.

Kind regards,
Ben
